* The depiction of [[Team Plasma]] in these episodes differs significantly from how they would be depicted from their official debut in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' and onward. While they still want to put Pokémon under mind control, the {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s in these episodes state their desire is to liberate Pokémon from their Trainers and that they're doing this in service of "{{an|N|the hero}}." This suggests a different story arc based on the first games of Generation V was planned for the first incarnations of Team Plasma to feature in, but it got scrapped as of the release of the sequels, the anime ending up using the second incarnation of Team Plasma instead. | * The depiction of [[Team Plasma]] in these episodes differs significantly from how they would be depicted from their official debut in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' and onward.

* The scene with {{p|Liepard}} attacking a skyscraper with {{m|Hyper Beam}} with two Team Plasma Grunts alongside it on a helicopter is reused for the ''Best Wishes!

The differences are that [[Aldith]] and [[Barret]] are in the scene (who have their uniforms designs from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2) instead of one Team Plasma Grunt with the original {{game|Black and White|s}} uniform, and the perspective of the shot is different between the two versions. | ||
** In addition, the shot of Liepard firing Hyper Beam is later recycled for use in ''[[BW106|Strong Strategy Steals the Show!]]'' when [[Stephan]]'s Liepard uses the move during his [[Vertress Conference]] battle against {{Ash}}. | ** In addition, the shot of Liepard firing Hyper Beam is later recycled for use in ''[[BW106|Strong Strategy Steals the Show!]]'' when [[Stephan]]'s Liepard uses the move during his [[Vertress Conference]] battle against {{Ash}}. | ||
* {{AP|Pikachu}} becoming supercharged from an external source and using a giant {{m|Electro Ball}} to destroy the [[Meteonite]] was recycled as a plot element in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', where he absorbed electricity from {{DL|Forces of Nature (anime)|Thundurus}} and used it to overwhelm {{an|Giovanni}} and the [[Reveal Glass]]. | * {{AP|Pikachu}} becoming supercharged from an external source and using a giant {{m|Electro Ball}} to destroy the [[Meteonite]] was recycled as a plot element in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', where he absorbed electricity from {{DL|Forces of Nature (anime)|Thundurus}} and used it to overwhelm {{an|Giovanni}} and the [[Reveal Glass]]. | ||
